First off, at 22 years old you are still trying to "find" yourself. Yes, you cheated, but cut yourself some slack. To say that you will be with one person forever at age 22 is pretty difficult. If your relationship is truly what you want, then talk about your situation. Your partner may surprise you! Regardless, you still have options. There is always adoption. You can find a family that wants to adopt your baby in an "open situation" so you can always have a relationship with the child. My husband and I are hoping to adopt this way.
Of course, there is always abortion, but don't do something you will regret later. It is a personal choice, so make sure you REALLY consider all of your options before going this route.
Make sure you actually are pregnant first, then consider all of your options. Do what will be best for YOU, and stay strong. We are here for support! Good luck, Michele.

michele21 is verified as being by the original poster of the question what would be another way to go besides the invitro way??? she hasn't trusted me for at least a year and its put a major struggle on our realtionship expecially on my end becuase im the big screw up and she just stays around but questions my every move and step in life.....which she deserves to i guess but it sucks im always defending myself and your right he doesn't respect it anymore he is in love with me badly....yeah i love her and yeah i wouldn't have cheated if i did your right about that sometimes you feel a void and emptyness your not getting from your partner and you do stupid things that doesn't excuse it but it makes you feel better at the time

 You say you love your girlfriend, yet you cheated on her and not only that you did it over and over, it wasn't just a OMG what did I do thing.
My advice, first take that pregnancy test. It's going to stress out out even more then anything else.
Secondly, you need to be able to communicate better with your partner.
Thirdly, you need to figure out WHY you did what you did. What you feel you are missing in your relationship or why you feel like sabotaging it. Cause that is what you are doing. And yes, learn from it. Learn to be open and honest with your partner. If you don't have that in your relationship then what do you have? If she can not trust you what is it worth for her to stay? Other then heartache.
I don't quite understand why either of you can't have a child (when you are good and ready?) You think the invitro is the only way to go for the two of you?
As far as the guy you slept with.. No he didn't respect your relationship 100% or he wouldn't have slept with you. Judge by his actions not his pretty words.
I wish you good luck
